 Jean Piaget was a swiss Psychologist and

 Born in switzerland
 1896-1980
 Proponent of Cognitive Development
Theory

4. COGNITIVE
Consciousness
Rational
Logical Thought
Awareness
Mental Processes
 Intellect
 Pottential
 Skill
 Intellegence

5. Cognitive Development
The Growth of the Childs to Think and
Reason
It is the Construction of thought process,
Including remembering,Problem Solving
and Decision making from Childhood
through Adolescence
It is the Development of Memory
Refers to the mind and how it works, it
involves how children thinks.

6. Piaget’s Stage of Cognitive Development

7. 1. Sensory Motor Stage
 0-2 years Old
 Childrens Learns About the World Using their Senses.
 Childrens begin to Interact with the Environment.

8. Sensory Motor Substages
Reflexive
-Children Respond Reflexively (Sucking
thumbs,Grasping, even smiling)
-Not already Intentional
Primary Circular Reactions
-Children begin to make specific movements(
sucking thumbs, kicking, smiling)
-Intentional in some way
Secondary Circular Reactions
-The baby/child start to enjoy there ability to
make things happen
-(Bang objects to make delightful sounds)(They
might throw or drop a Toy,(uh oh!)
Coordinating Secondary Circular
-The combined their learned activity to achieve
goals
-(They might Crawl to pick up the Toys)
Tertiary Circular Reactions
-Child explore their world and learn
-(they listen and watching stories)
Symbolic
-They might ask short Question And make request
using one or two words
(asking for water food etc.)

9. 2.Preoperational stages
 2-7 years old
 Children’s begin to develop to use
symbols as a representation of
real things.
 Thinking is Common in
preoperational stage

10. Preoperational Stage Key Features
Centration
-Is the tendency to focus on one aspect of situation to the exclusion of the other.
-(child insist that lions and tigers are not cat)
Egocentrism
- Think the world entirely from their own personal perspective
-(why does the sun shine? To keep me warm) (why grass is green? Its my favorite color)
Pretend/play
-Pretend to be people they are not
(Policeman, Supe heroes)
Symbolic Representations
-Children think symbolically (broom to horse)(box to car)

11. Animism
-Belief that Inanimate object (toys , doll, teddy bear etc.) have feelings and alive.
Artificialism
- Belief that environmental characteristic can be attributed to human actions or
inventions.
(its windy outside beacause someone is blowing very hard)
Irreversability
-Young childs difficulty mentally reversing a sequence of events
(circled clay once flattened, can be make a circle again.)

12. 3.Concrete Operational Stage
 7-11 years old.
 This stage children begin
to think logically about
concrete events.
 They begin to
undertsand the concept
of conservation.

13. Child Characteristic in Concrete operational stage
Seriation- The child show increase of
logical reasoning(Now your child
can sort from the tallest to the
shortest, or the thinnest to the
widest.)
Classification- sorting things into
categories.( Your child already groups
flowers and animals into two separate
categories)
Reversibility-this involves an
understanding that actions can be
reversed.(Fruits is an apple, apple is fruits
and apple is foods)
Identity is understanding that objects have
qualities that do not change even if the object is
altered in some way.(A piece of chalk is still
chalk even when the piece is broken in two)
Conservation-Conservation is the
understanding that something stays the same in
quantity even though its appearance changes.
the ability to understand that redistributing material does not
affect its mass, number, volume or length.
Decentration-The ability to pay attention
to multiple attributes of an object or
situation (choose between two lollipops, a
child might choose based on how one flavor is
better.

14. 4.formal operational stage
 11- Adulthood age
 At this stage, the adolescent or young
begins to think abstractly and reason
hypothetical problems
 Teens begin to think more about moral,
philosophical, ethical, social, and
political issues that require theoretical
and abstract reasoning
 Individuals in this stage think carefully before
they act.

15. Notable Skills
The skills listed below are indicators of the Formal
Operational Stage of Cognitive Development:
Deductive Logic –this has to do with being able to think in broader
terms. This skill is useful in Science and Math.
Abstract Thought –has to do with being able to think about abstract
ideas. They consider possible outcomes,
Problem solving- is the ability to plan an efficient and logical approach to
solve a problem
Hypothetical-Deductive Reasoning-children at this age think about
what-ifs and attempt to formulate various solutions to solve them.
